Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

Overview

About this plugin

Novelience Password Change Alerts observes wp_set_password and committed

profile_update events. This covers password resets, profile edits through

wp_update_user, and updates to existing users through wp_insert_user,

without a WooCommerce dependency. Email or display-name changes alone do not

create an alert, and creating a new user is not treated as a password change.

  • Never logs, stores, or includes the password in an email.
  • Deduplicates accidental repeated notifications.
  • Lets developers filter eligibility, recipient, subject, body, headers, and

the deduplication interval.

  • Fires an action with the final mail result for observability integrations.
  • Gives each plugin filter and action a separate user-data copy with password

hashes and password-reset keys cleared.

  • Includes French translations for the plugin notice and password-change email;

English remains the source language.

The extension does not disable WordPress’s own notices. WordPress may also send

its standard email for the same update. Changes made directly in SQL or in a

custom password store that bypasses these APIs are outside this workflow.

Developed and maintained by Novelience.
